9.28.15 Amsterdam to Enzenberg

Early morning start. Got into Munich mid morning. We were upgrade at no charge to this sports car (Z4 BMW) for our drive to Enzenberg at the foot of the Bavarian alps. We had to empty a couple of our suitcases so we could stuff every nook and cranny of the trunk. I haven't been able to get Joseph out of the drivers seat.

 

 

 

 

Our hotel (Hotel Geiger) is on Lake Hopfensee. It's beautiful. Gorgeous mountain peaks with a placid lake in front. People promenading around the lake shore with their dogs.

It was Joseph's birthday. Want to know how I remembered that? We drove past a pile of pumpkins on the side of the road. Joseph's birthday cake is usually a pumpkin pie. It was only then I remembered it was his birthday. Whoops. Yes we are still married because he has such a huge heart.

We stopped at the Andec Monastary for some food and the beer that's brewed there. It's what I'd imagined a beer all to be. Everyone sitting in a large hall around common tables. I had the crispy pork knuckle (ham shank) with warm sauerkraut and a pint of dark beer. It was delicious but I'm still recovering from a sick stomach - not sure wether it was all the fat or the sauerkraut but haven't seen hungry since.

 

 

We had a good nights sleep in spite of the indigestion.




Wanted to share this last Amsterdam picture. A couple strolling their youngster as well as the oldster.
